the 1:24 dub city are hot!---had to dump a few recently---the ones i have left are my impalas---have you seen a 1:24 '67 impala around your way?<hr /></blockquote>Just the other day as a matter of fact! I can go back and look to see if they still have it if you want!

You like the 1:64 ones? I saw the new ones there too...

I just started collecting the 1:18 TV and movie cars. So far I've picked up the Batmobile, the Mach 5, BOTH Munsters cars and Starsky's "striped tomato". I'm also going toget the ETCO-1 when it comes out.

I get a few-
If they're Munster, Monster or Big Daddy Roth related I'll get them.

Thinking of picking up the 1:18 Tom Daniel cars, but I have to see them first-look a little cheap in the promo pics.

And I'll be picking up the 1:18 Flintmobile at the end of Aug.

i had to slim back to strictly 1:64 because of a) space & b) money---i just picked up 7 of what i think are the new ones, they were under the "old skool" label---i'm still missin' a ton and jada's website is meh and don't forget all the color variants

poor paint apps and materials on die0cast are just as bad as a poorly made fig---i've passed up plenty of cars i don't have based on poor paint apps alone---that shit drives me nuts forums
